Question about versions of libstdc++
Hello,
I'm confused by the multitude of versions of libstdc++ I find on my Red Hat
Linux installation, and the purpose of each one. Basically, my question
is: which of these supersedes which, and which is the latest? My problem
is a run-time incompatibility between a module I compile here, which uses
libstdc++.a.2.10.0, and the Java VM on RHL, which uses
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2. I was thinking of using the .so library for my
modules too, but now I have a feeling this is actually an *older* library.
For example, I have:
/usr/lib 113% ls -F libstdc++*
libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.a libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3@
libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so* libstdc++.so.2.7.2@
libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.alibstdc++.so.2.7.2.8*
libstdc++-3-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so* libstdc++.so.2.8@
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.a.2@ libstdc++.so.2.8.0*
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2@ libstdc++.so.2.9@
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.a.3@ libstdc++.so.2.9.dummy*
And under /usr/lib/gcc-lib (in subdirs) I have libstdc++.{so,a} pointing
backwards to various versions in /usr/lib.
The funny thing is, when I installed GCC 2.95.3 from scratch, I only got
/usr/gcc/2.95.3/lib/libstdc++.a.2.10.0. No .so version.
So, to summarize my questions:
1. Which is the newer version? How do I interpret the various numbers in,
e.g., libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so ?
2. If, as I suspect, libstdc++.a.2.10.0 is the newest version, where do I
get an .so version of it?
3. Where can I find information on compatibility issues between these
versions?
Many thanks in advance for any information,
- Yuval

Enter Key not recognized in X-LOGIN-window (in Compaq Presario 1510US, Redhat7.2)
Title: Enter Key not recognized in X-LOGIN-window (in Compaq Presario 1510US, Redhat7.2) Hi, I have a Compaq Presario 1510US notebook. I have installed Redhat7.2. Installation went without any problem. When I strated Linux and Enter the user-name and press ENETR. It doesn't take me to password line. ENTER key is not being recognized. For testing, I connected an external PS/2 keyboard. I can log-in without any problem using the ENTER key on that. Once I could LOGIN the ENTER key of Notebook works FINE in the applications. I am finding the problem only in the LOGIN window. As a workaround I have set the init state to 3 so that I can login in the console and then use startx to bring in the X-windows. Any answers to this typical problem? I am neither an expert nor a newby for Linux. Thanks and regards, Suresh Hegde

newbie question: how to speed up linux
I've just taken my first stumbling steps down on the Linux road, installing Redhat 7.3. Many things have impressed me so far, but the over all speed of my system is a big dissappointment. Compared to when I run Windows 95 and Windows 2000 on the same computer, almost everything seems to take for ever. Clicking New Message in Evolution until the new message turns up takes a couple of seconds. Starting OpenOffice 1.0 Writer somewhere between 30 seconds and a minute. Recieving 500 mails or so from my ISP somewhere between 15 och 30 minutes. My computer is a PII-233, ATI Mach64 3D Rage IIC for video, 192 MB RAM and 2 ATA33 hard drives. What's the bottleneck?

RE: newbie question: how to speed up linux
I have a Dell Latitude 233 MHz laptop which I run RH 7.3 and KDE. It's not fast but I use it as a lot when I don't want to sit in front of my workstation, especially as I have wireless and can be anywhere in the house. I have two similar machines, I installed windows on the other and it practically stopped it was so slow. I think you expect too much from such a slow machine. If you don't run a gui, for instance as a server, you can expect some reasonable work out of it, but as a desktop, it's a bit too weak for real work. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Mike Burger Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2002 8:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: newbie question: how to speed up linux I have a similarly configured machine, with the exception of hte RAM...my PII 266 only has 64MB, and I often note a slowness in KDE, but I assume it to be a lack of RAM, as I often note the system swapping.

Re: newbie question: how to speed up linux
You didn't say which desktop you're using, but both the gnome and kde GUIs are pretty resource intensive. One possibility is to try a leaner desktop like xfce (www.xfce.org). You should be able to switch back and forth between it and what you're using now. If you're using gnome and want to stick with it, you can really speed things up by using gmc to draw the desktop instead of nautilus. It's not as pretty but it is faster and more stable. Another thing I do (I'm not sure how much difference this makes) is to install processor-specific kernel and glibc packages. You can find the latest i686 binaries for both in en/os/i686 at your favorite redhat update mirror. For the record, I have a celeron 433 with 384mb ram and run the ximian gnome desktop (with gmc instead of nautilus) on redhat 7.2, with i686-specific versions of the kernel and glibc packages. I have no complaints whatsoever with the stability and performance of this setup, although that wasn't the case before I got rid of nautilus. Who knows, maybe it's better now. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
newbie question: upgrading software through redhat network andup2date
Are new versions of software like Evolution put on Redhat Network and made available through up2date, or do I have to get newer packages somewhere else? Is up2date/RHN just for critical bugfixes? If, does that mean that if I get a newer version of Evolution from somewhere else the RHN, then I can't depend on RHN/up2date to get my critical bugfixes, but rather have to track them down by myself? -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

No need for sed, cut is simpler:-
$extract= echo File_21_05082002|cut -c 6-7
Cut is easier for this problem but I'd modify it one bit
$extract= `echo File_21_05082002|cut -d_ -f2`
This assumes (*cough*) that you want the value between the two _ characters.
To answer your original question. In sed:
$extract=`echo $Fname | sed -e s/^File_// -e s/_[0-9]*$//`
Should come very close to what you wanted (I think...)
or in sed using 1 pattern match assuming File_ always comes before the
digits and the end of the digits is a _ character.
echo File_21_05082002|sed -e 's/^File_\(.*\)_.*$/\1/'
Or just use shell globbing:
orig=File_21_05082002
temp=${orig#*_}
result=${temp%_*}
echo $result

Just a casual observations, based on my previous system which was 256M Ram, 512 Swap, running just X (no gnome or kde): On a clean boot, all is great for maybe a week. During this time X memory consumption slowly increases, I guess due to caching, etc. Eventually swap usage increases also, of course. At some point, usually around 75% full, swap usage becomes a severe performance hindrance (at what point this happens depends on kernel version -- some are much worse than others). Something that was very fast, becomes an egg-sucking dog. So my solution, when I couldn't stand it anymore, was to restart X. This frees up all the various X memory. For me, this was every 7-14 days, or so. It seems X-4.2 is much better about all this BTW. Now I am on a 1G machine, and it just isn't an issue. I run X 30+ days with no performance detriment. Hardly any swap is used. I would guess these issues would surface faster with memory hogs such as kde or gnome, etc. If I had 192M RAM for my usage, I'd want want probably at least 700M swap to avoid this particular situation. -- Hal Burgiss -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

I've only seen this behavior twice. Once was when I was compiling something and I didn't have enough swap. It was a long time ago and I can't remember what it was, but it forced me into using a swapfile until I got it built. The second time was when I had a ram module going bad. I didn't know it was flaky at the time and it passed memtest. But it finally started locking during boot. It failed memtest after it reached that stage. After replacing it the first thing I did was build a kernel. It worked just fine from then on. -- XP: The ME of NT. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

RE: newbie question: how to speed up linux
I'm just going from my limited experience... I've had RH on a PII-200 w/ 128MB and w/ 256MB, a PII-233 w/ 256 MB RAM, and an AMD K something or other 300. Running an X environment on any of the above was not much fun. Given those setups, I found it less of a hassle to run in the shell. I spent far more time being productive than waiting for X apps to respond. KDE and Gnome would run but they didn't respond well. This all could've been my setup at the time, who knows...

Red Hat however does say that the minimum processor is a i586, I believe. Many older, slower systems crash with a sig 11 while running /sbin/loader. I have a PII-200 system here that does the same thing. The next system was an HP OmniBook 5700ct laptop. The system was running RH72. The system would not boot into the install because it was halting during partition check because of a dma timeout (or actually no timeout). Help from this list and RH support could not give me a solution to this. After weeks of trying different options and looking trough source. Finally found a way to disable dma correctly to allow the install process to continue. Outcome: System upgraded. Just out of curiosity, you booted with boot: linux nodma in the example above? running install... running /sbin/loader Install exited abnormally -- received signal 11 Which then goes to a line that says you man safely reboot your system. Great signal 11... bad hardware frigging wonderful! Booting off a RH72 floppy with the RH 73 CD goes into the install (of course I didn't continue). Hmm... Outcome: No upgrade preformed.

On systems with scsi, ext3, reiserfs, raid, etc. it will probably fail
unless you do a little work and manage to provide modules built for the

I just did another install to verify that it worked, and the only problem

Linux 7.2, I called the system function gethostbyname, then I used memory leak
tools(mtrace and valgrind) to trace memory leak, I found the gethostbyname
having a memory leak.
I can use command
"man freehostent", but I can not use, the gcc compiler told me the function
"freehostent" not found. What can I do?
My example source as
follow :
#include stdlib.h#include
stdio.h#include string.h#include
mcheck.h#include arpa/inet.h#include
sys/types.h#include sys/socket.htypedef unsigned int
u_int32;char serv[2][256]={{"192.168.1.168"},{"ntp.psh.com.cn"}};
int main(int argc, char
*argv[]){mtrace();u_int32 num; //unsigned int32;struct hostent
*hp;if ((hp = gethostbyname(serv[1]) ) != 0)
{memmove((char *)num, hp-h_addr,
sizeof(u_int32));printf("OK\n");}//freehostent(hp);return
1;}
best
regards!

Re: pppd not replacing existing default route to eth0 [solved]
Thanks for the quick response Ed. I knew it had something to do with the routing, and I had had trouble with the static-routes file before but it didn'tappear to be it this time.I dunno why I didn't think of this before, but a simple route del default and then route add default ppp0 sorted it out perfectly. Thanks anyway.

Do the static routes include a static default route? If so, then you are probably correct in your guess. At this point the obvious answer is to "experiment". Making sure you keep a copy of your configuration files, delete the static routes you guess may be causing the problem. If that clears things up with regards to Internet connectivity...then you may be all the way thereor part of the way there. Depending on your network topology you may have to add additional static routes to compensate for the new default route.

RAM Used by processes
Hi list, How do I find out how much RAM and swap is used by different processes? 'free' gives me a total and ps -aux gives me a % output. I need a per-process usage of physical and swap memory in MB.
